What's up bro? How is everything going? I'm gonna be in town June 12-15, I'm hoping to get to the firehouse on the 13th. Stay safe. Hopefully we can get together. Tell the guys, so they can catch their next job!

Whenever you are ready bro, We still got the same guys going at it. Greg, Rob, Quinney, Myself, Jack and Whitey. No one else has really stepped up to the plate. Give me a call (same numbers) and we'll stop up with a few guys someday or you guys can come down. I don't believe you have seen our Rescue in awhile. It's set up real sweet, you'd like it.
